It works just like "firewire disk mode" on later powerbooks.
A light may have dawned (!) -- if I get a firewire card for my
Lombard
can I connect it to my B&W G3 (both running Panther), and transfer
files that way? For some reason that I don't understand the ethernet
connection between these two computers stopped working a few weeks
ago,
and nobody on either this list or the G-List has been able to point
me in the right direction to get it going again.
There seem to be a lot of these cards on eBay for not much money, and
some of the descriptions specify that they'll work on a Mac, but
is the
Lombard "Cardbus 2 compatible"?
I don't think you'll be able to boot in FireWire target disk mode
with a
PCMCIA card since some driver has to load in order for the card to be
recognized.
No, but 10.3 allows you to use TCP/IP over firewire. Turn on both the
FW networking ports in the Network control pane, you can then use
rendezvous or bonjour or aloha or Howdy or whatever Apple's calling
it this week.
